Firefox forks have dozens of users! Dozens!

Tumblr announced they were gonna integrate with ActivityPub years ago. It’s been silence on the topic since then, hopefully this move to Wordpress is a step towards joining the Fediverse.

The link to the original TechCrunch article doesn’t seem to be working, but here’s a mirror on Slashdot: https://m.slashdot.org/story/407458

Signal is open source. Go read the source or a write up describing what it does.

Signal doesn’t store your encryption key in the cloud and yet it supports e2ee messaging on multiple devices including desktop.

Telegram is not private messaging.

The hotdog vendor keeps going on about how he’s the good guy because he pays more to the sausage suppliers. As if that’s at all relevant to his customers.

Firefox already blocks all trackers by default. I think Mozilla is trying to be the good guy by providing a more private option that’s available to people that don’t use Firefox. It seems pretty naive, but I think their heart is in the right place.

At the end of the day, this is just another setting to toggle off on a fresh install for those of us against all tracking and advertising on the web.

This is at least the second attempt to make VTMB2. The original version by Hardsuit Labs was entirely scrapped and restarted at The Chinese Room.

I spoke to the new devs at PAX last year and they said they were only reusing assets from the Hardsuit Labs version and otherwise completely making a new game from scratch.

This new version has only been publicly announced since late 2023, although it probably started development sometime in late 2021/early 2022.

I think you’re projecting your feelings onto him, he doesn’t hate Star Wars, he was just the wrong director for the job of making a middle movie in a trilogy. He’s a great director, and Episode 8 is a good movie in a vacuum. It’s just a terrible movie if you’re trying to bridge Episode 7 and 9.

I wish Disney had just let Abrams direct the whole sequel trilogy and given Rian Johnson a standalone movie like Solo. It’s pretty clear Disney had no fucking clue what they were doing with Star Wars after they acquired it.

Nightly is aimed at developers. I’m sure there will be an article with pictures once it’s closer to release.

You’re not gonna find a self hosted solution as good as iCloud Photos, at least not yet. As a stop gap you can turn on advanced data protection on iCloud to significantly improve your privacy.

It’s 30mph not kph. City streets should be limited to 20mph anyway.

CS2 is Counter Strike 2. Cities: Skylines 2 is C:S2

This is great! Account portability is one of the biggest reasons BlueSky gave for developing ATProto instead of using ActivityPub. This could be a way of getting them to switch to the standard and expand the fediverse in the process.

Not in Utica, no. It’s all Albany expression.

Not entirely sure what you mean by that. It deletes posts in the same way that any other ActivityPub server does, by federating the deletion request.

It’s up to the receiving servers to handle that request and delete the post. You can easily have an ActivityPub native server that doesn’t honor those requests.

Bridgy doesn’t scrape anything. It works the same as any other ActivityPub instance, the only difference is that it converts some JSON from one format to another.

It also converts edit and deletion events, so in your scenario it would relay that you want your poem or photo deleted.

This isn’t a web scrapper that reposts content like all the bots reposting Reddit threads to Lemmy. This is a protocol translator between federated networks that speak different languages.

That’s exactly the point. Isolationists instances can always defederate bridges if they don’t like them. This outrage is them imposing their will on the rest of the fediverse.
